[c-nsp] CPU utilization for handling interrupt

I'm not receiving that log, I have nearly 600Mbps on this link, nearly 3 - 6 Mbps is being process switched from this link only, I tried to disable it, the CPU due to interrupt got 0%.

please check the following packets.

those are captured from dumping the CPU.
do you find anything that make them need special handling?

Sounds like your router is punting all traffic.  Are you seeing the
following errors in your logs?

> %CFIB-SP-7-CFIB_EXCEPTION : FIB TCAM exception, Some entries will be software switched 

If this is the case, you need to drop the number of routes that the box is
handling, and then reboot the system.  Once the FIB limits are exceeded on
this platform, rebooting is the only way to revert to hardware forwarding.
